Resourcing Ministry

The Resourcing Ministry is responsible for resourcing our churches through practical means such as shared licenses, technology, insurance, forms and more.

Our staff team desires to hear what resources our churches are lacking and to find ways to help fill those resource needs on a larger scale .
